Kommos Beach

Kommos Beach is a sandy beach located in a somewhat remote area. It is larger than the beach in Matala, providing ample space even during the high season. The beach features crystal clear water and is known for its stunning sunsets. It is divided into different sections, with the southern part offering amenities such as sunbeds, umbrellas, a cafe, and a lifeguard point. There is also a designated area for nudists.

The beach is accessible by car and has a parking space available for visitors. There are also tavernas and snack places within walking distance. However, visitors should be aware of the wind conditions before visiting, as the beach is an open space and can experience large waves and fast-flying sand when the wind is strong.

The beach also has some unique natural characteristics. There are rocks in the sea where visitors can find shells, and the sand is different from that of Red Beach in Matala. Despite these features, the beach is rarely crowded, offering a peaceful and serene environment for visitors.
